Hello, friends. This past week was overall good. Busy, as usual. I feel like my depression/anxiety has been having a field day because I feel pretty burned out at work. It’s strange to say it was a good week but then go on to say I’m feeling burned-out as a teacher. The two can co-exist.…

Hello, friends. This was a good week overall. It was a short week at work and I’ve done a lot of stuff for writing and getting ready for February’s release of The Monster in the Closet. Unfortunately, the cold still lingers in the house so it has dampened a little bit of Thanksgiving for us,…
Hello, friends. I feel like crap. G had a cold last week and now Pamela and I have it. It started Monday night and, man, it’s taken hold. On top of that, my vocational-technical high school’s Open House is this weekend and it would be deeply frowned upon for me to miss it. If I’m…

Hello, friends. I had a minor scare with my car this week. Pamela and I smelled what we thought was a burned-rubber smell around it Thursday afternoon right after I came home from work. We then saw something leaking from the car. When I backed up, Pamela dipped the tip of her finger into the…

Hello, friends. This past week was crazy but mostly good. There were many changes from the regularly scheduled programming but it all somehow worked out in the end. The final full cover for The Monster in the Closet came to me and I’m beside myself. We’ll talk more about that a little later. Welcome to…

Hello, friends. And somehow we’re in November. So starts the busy months of the year, which, frankly, scares me considering how busy things have been. But’s that’s life, I guess. My younger daughter turns 13 this week, which hits me right between the eyes. My baby will be a teenager. How? Because time fucks with…

Hello, friends. The week went by with the speed of one being tied to the front of a high-speed train. Emotional ups and downs. The trip to Boston to see Hamilton was terrific! We were in the area of and then in Boston Common the day after 125,000 people attended the No Kings protest in…

Hello, friends. As I write this, reports are that 7 million people attended the various No Kings Day protests, which swells my heart. You can see that today’s essay will be a little about that, but only a little. It’s more about Hamilton. There’s also some news regarding my forthcoming novel, The Monster in the…

Hello, friends. I don’t think I slept well any night this week. This affected a lot of my writing and even work. I had to leave work early one day because I was so tired. I came home and slept for three hours. I’m happy this is a three-day weekend. It’s very much needed. The…

Hello, friends. This week’s newsletter is coming in a little late because I was at a book signing event with authors Derek Mola, John Lynch, Brennan LaFarro, and Barry Lee Dejasu. It was a fun though a slow event. There were no signs up at the store and very little publicity, so I’m not surprised.…
